Description
San Francisco Overland Limited and Other Select Overland Route Trains, A Pictorial
By Jeffrey Alan Cauthen & Donald M. Munger
As a result of working on numerous SP passenger car volumes over the years, the authors discovered many interesting photos and documents relating to the Overland Limited, San Francisco Overland Limited, and San Francisco Overland. As this is a favorite SP passenger train of the authors, we believe it will be useful to share these photos and documentary findings through this publication.
The main focus of this volume will be on the San Francisco Overland (Limited) for the years 1946 through 1963. We have included limited coverage of the predecessor trains from 1869 to 1899, and select coverage of the Overland Limited and San Francisco Overland Limited for the periods 1899 through 1945. Also included are select photos of other Overland Route passenger trains, plus appendices of historical dates, car assignments, consists, painting guide and bibliography for more information.
Hardcover with dust jacket, 8 1⁄2″ x 10 1⁄2″ landscape format, 480 pages, color throughout. Quality printed in the USA.
